Hello.
In my Debian 12 machine, I have PostgreSQL-15 installed; I'd like to
upgrade to PostgreSQL-16. Should I first uninstalled PostgreSQL-15 and
then install PostgreSQL-16 or is there a way to just do an upgrade?
Thanks.

How did you install it? Package from the Debian repo, package from the
PGDG repo or something else?
The packages from the repos are designed to be installed in parallel and
upgraded via pg_upgrade. There is a utility script "pg_upgradecluster"
to aid in this.
So the typical procedure is
1) Install new version
2) Drop the new (empty) database
3) Invoke pg_upgradecluster (see man-page for details)
4) Check that everything is ok
5) Drop old database and uninstall old version.

I've installed PostgreSQL 12 and PostgreSQL 15 side-by-side in my Ubuntu Linux. Both works fine till date.

Do you want to run both versions concurrently or do you want to move
from 15 --> 16 and then drop the 15 instance?
